Christmas tree permits for National Forest System lands on the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest’s Bridgeport and Carson Ranger Districts are available for purchase online as well as in-person at multiple locations.
Permits are issued on a first-come, first-served basis for $10 each, with a limit of two trees per household. Permits are nonrefundable, nontransferable, and valid through Dec. 25.
The Carson Ranger District has limited permits available, and once allotted permits are sold, no more will be available. To purchase a permit online, visit www.Recreation.gov and search for “Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest Christmas Tree Permits.”
The Bridgeport Ranger District office will sell permits in-person at the office, 75694 US-395, in Bridgeport.
The Carson Ranger District will also be selling Christmas tree tags in-person at 1536 S. Carson St. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
In addition, permits will be available at various vendors in Walker, Woodfords Canyon, Markleeville, Reno, Sparks, and Gardnerville.
Each Christmas tree tag is valid for cutting one tree on lands managed by the Ranger District for which the permit was purchased. A map, cutting rules, and regulations will be included with the permit.
The permit does not authorize cutting on private, state, or other federal lands.
